WOW - this is truly disturbing!
This has been touched on in a few other threads in the past, but it is high time that we put it all together. The link below from Australian Science TV series - "Catalyst" , handily contains video and transcript.
Micro-Plastics in the environment ... coming from where you wouldn't have thought, and with a greater impact than you would have thought :eek!:
Each Micro-Particle acts as a magnifier for pathogens, bio-toxins, and heavy metals etc. It is thought that there may be Nano-scale effects that haven't even been discovered yet.
Micro-Plastics are not only jeapodizing the web of life, accumulating in the food chain, but also making their way through gut barrier into the bloodstream - disrupting endocrine systems, loading organs and worse .....
A lot of this data is based around the study of marine life. If anyone knows of any later studies, and/or research in humans - please post.
